R O M E AND SURROUNDINGS…
ROME, THE ETERNAL CITY, was born to rule a vast empire and, as the empire began to divide, the region began the centre of the Christian world. Artists and architects flocked to work for the popes and their families, notably in the Renaissance and Baroque periods when some magnificent architectural history can be seen all over the city and the surrounding area.
Beautiful tours around some villages located up hill overlooking Rome. Great to Frascati, Marino, Castelgandolfo, the Pope’s Summer residence, enjoying beautiful panoramas including the many lakes. Special tasting in typical farmhouses tasting good wine, oil and local dishes.
